Susannah Nichols
Middle & Upper School Director
We are so grateful we found our way to Roeper. Our daughter has had a phenomenal preschool experience. The low student to teacher ratio and Roeper’s ability to use their large campus for exploration and discovery has laid the foundation for our daughter to be a hands-on, investigative learner. She is excited to go to school every day and has created strong social connections with her classmates as well as learned how to be independent.

[In my class] we had state champions, professional musicians, renowned artists—the list goes on. But what really stands out to me is how my class has taken their passions and used them to serve others and the greater community. That is the mark of true Roeperians.
